Fela Kuti | No Agreement LP Water Color Tears and Blood (1977): ANo Agreement is sometimes overlooked among Felas 1977 releases, eclipsed by albums such as 'J. J. D. Johnny Just Drop and 'Sorrow Tears and Blood, yet it is among his best albums of the period. It includes an outstanding Afrika 70 instrumental, Dog Eat Dog.
